Oh my goodness. Where do I start. INCREDIBLE SERVICE. INCREDIBLE FOOD. SOOOO DELICIOUS. People are so sweet and helpful. I went in and asked them to give me all of their favorites. EVERY SINGLE THING I GOT ( 12 things ) WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. If you’re near the area it is mandatory to go and get some goodies from DE MA VIE.

Ran by an old man that greets you with a smile and helps you pick your pastry. He heats up the pastry upon request, I had the cheese danish and he topped it off with honey…..amazing combo. Reminds me of visiting and eating at my grandparents haha. This is the spot you go to when you have free time and want to feel at home
